Commonly Asked Questions

What is the theme?

Our 2018 event theme is The Emerald City: bright colors, whimsy, adventures along yellow brick roads with good friends (all in a fabulous pair of sparkly red shoes). We promise no wicked witches or flying monkeys - only the good and magical. It will be a joyous evening where dreams that you dare to dream really do come true.

How should I dress?

Dress is black tie optional. We encourage you to dress your best. It’s a great excuse to be totally fancy! Men may wear tuxes or suits. Women may wear long or cocktail length dresses. We would love to see lots of bright colors and of course ruby red shoes.

Can I stay the night at The Peabody?

Yes, see the Stay the Night tab up above.  Our room block is limited, so be sure to reserve your room early.

How is the money raised at this event used?

The Winter Gala is Page Robbins’s largest single fundraiser and is a vital source of funding. Page Robbins offers unique and uplifting weekday care for those with memory loss. We also provide free support and social services for caregivers. Participants at Page Robbins have good days filled with music, art, games, reminiscing, fellowship, and fun, while their caregivers get a break. Client families pay about half the cost of care, so we must raise $700,000 each year to simply fund the budget.

How many people attend?

We hope to have around 550 guests, so PLEASE invite your friends, family, co-workers, etc. to this event! The more, the merrier.

I can’t attend, can I still contribute?

Yes!  Your help is needed to reach our $170,000 goal.  Click on the Donate tab in the navigation bar above to learn more.

Can I volunteer?
